[QUOTE="anachronism, post: 214138, member: 4134"] For a 20 in. barrel, I'd go with the .308. The 30-06s strong suit is heavy bullets, and a 20 in. barrel is too short for effective use of the slow-burning powders necessary for 200 grain happiness. Most long range 30-06 types favor 26+ in barrels. Mines just under 28 in. [/QUOTE]
